This part of the code in the latest release of firefox defines it, I am
going to change the bug status, as it is not really a bug and only a
default behaviour.

Check this link for more details regarding this choice:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.backspace_action

In file $PATH_TO_INSTALLATION/mozilla/browser/app/profile/firefox.js

BEGIN(CODE)

// Backspace and Shift+Backspace behavior
// 0 goes Back/Forward
// 1 act like PgUp/PgDown
// 2 and other values, nothing
#ifdef UNIX_BUT_NOT_MAC
pref("browser.backspace_action", 2);
#else
pref("browser.backspace_action", 0);
#endif

END(CODE)
